Why does it matter whether Emma buried him or not? Is it because of what Kid Cable said? So what?
The fact is that Emma has been written horrendously the past 10 years, and Cyclops was one of the best and worst things to happen to her character. There's no use in arguing with a stupid story as it's just validating what happened in IvX more.
Well she did play games with him and used her powers to force him to be with her in Secret Empire
Emma is the person that came between his parents. He's obviously biased and his disdain for her makes sense considering he's still a kid
This! All of this! 100% this.
Waaaay too often, readers misinterpret a character's opinions or perspectives (in this case, Lil' Cable) as the author's SCRIPTURE. This is not the case. Well, this is not always the case.
A GOOD author will write the character and maintain their honest voice, even if said author doesn't have the same opinion as the character, because he or she is NOT that character.
Lil' Cable is talking about his dad's "other woman". This is the woman whom he holds responsible (justified or not) for the dissolving of his parent's marriage. For anyone out there with non-divorced-parents, this is a pretty common occurrence for the biological child of the adult to irrationally (or rationally) loathe their parent's new romantic companion.
And if our beautiful, passionate fandom were to rally and outrage every time someone spoke ill of Miss Frost, well this fandom might lose our damn minds. PASS!
Its all part of her charm. She's the gorgeous, ferocious, hard as nails, beast-woman that folks are perpetually suspicious of because she was (is?) an unapologetic shady lady whose fux-to-give reservoir ran dry AGES AGO.
I am on pins and needles in anticipation of the future, for when Scott and Emma share panel time, and what that will all look like.
By someone who likes to use "Exactly whats on the page" for their arguments.
that's exactly what this is and it's ridiculous. If you need to make up **** about a fictional character because you hate them that much...something's not right.
HA!
I posted this in the Annual...but Emma is at his grave in IvX...which happens AFTER Death of X, after the funeral, she wouldn't visit the grave if his body wasn't there

On another note, I didn't know Emma was part of Infinity Wars.
spoilers:end of spoilers
She got fused with Logan (lmao) but gets separated and teams up with Loki
Deodato drew a good close-up in issue 3 (?) but I can't post a pic right now.
"Cable was right!"
On the topic of this "proper burial".... the annual left me with the impression that either:
a) Lil' Cable exhumed Daddy-Clop's body for his phoenix pace maker placement, and then put him back after the funeral
or
b)Emma buried Scott on her own AFTER the funeral we see, and AFTER the X-Men all left, (while the funeral was going down, is when Lil' Nate did his Lil' surgery) to maintain the illusion of his murder via Blackbolt
or
c)Lil' Cable is being hyper dramatic -- as teens are often prone. (no disrespect teens. I recall it all very clearly)
She's actually depicted FAR more like Classic Emma in this event. It makes you scratch your head because the MU gets her right and yet the X-office just cant grasp her character.
It's FAR worse that Cable is desecrating Scott's body by putting something inside his corpse, but hey he's grieving and the hypocrisy is justified right? *re*
But part of the issue is that when its the hundredth character saying the same thing, it feels less like the character's take and more like editorials take.
Yep, she's been decently busy outside the X-books. There are some good Emma moments in Infinity Wars. But that is another complaint, that the X-office's Emma and the rest of the Marvel's Emma are so completely different.
Meh.
Feels normal to me. Sorry its such a drag for some folks.
But for me, characters (Lil Cable, Hope, whoever) dissing on Emma or just generally not liking her is like Sam Guthrie talking about his nigh invulnerability or Rogue being bummed about not touching Remy or Kurt getting ragged on by random humans for looking like a blue devil. Its just something they do and will continue to do.
Emma wears white. She snarks at people. And people often hate her.
